Fordham University is linked by a formal written agreement with
SUNY Maritime College and Maritime’s NROTC Unit. This permits
Fordham students to enroll in the NROTC Program at Maritime and be

bachelor’s degrees.
To receive a commission, a midshipman must complete all requirements
for a bachelor’s degree in accordance with Fordham University rules
and regulations. He or she must also complete certain courses specified
